profile

Roq Cleo

Hey there, I’m Roq Cleo, a creative catalyst on a mission to ignite a million minds with the power of Design Thinking by 2030.

As a multi-awarded Design Thinking specialist, brand strategist, and visual communication expert, I’m not just your average speaker. I’m a seasoned creative entrepreneur with two decades of experience transforming ideas into impactful realities.

My trophy cabinet includes two Anvil Awards, recognition as one of LinkedIn Philippines’ Top 30 Leaders, and a spot on the prestigious LinkedIn Philippines Top 100 list (twice!). But it’s not about the accolades; it’s about the transformative power of creativity that I bring to every stage.

With my dual expertise as founder and CEO of NuBrave, a leading brand strategy and eCommerce marketing agency, and as Head Facilitator at NuBrave Academy, I bridge the gap between theory and practice. I’ve helped countless individuals and organizations unlock their creative potential, innovate their products and services, and communicate their stories with impact.

My passion lies in empowering others to harness the Design Thinking methodology. I’ve led over 300 workshops, guiding participants to empathize with their audience, define challenges with clarity, ideate outside the box, prototype fearlessly, and test for success. But hey, I’m not all work and no play! I’m an engineer turned creative powerhouse, fueled by curiosity and a love for all things design.

When I’m not crafting innovative solutions, you’ll find me exploring new trends, experimenting with emerging technologies, and indulging my inner geek.
